Who Shot the Deputy?

I was watching a film recently where a character played by Bob Hoskins (an excellent actor, one of my favs) was lamenting how his elderly mother was now listening to reggae music all night and day. She was into so much that she asked the question "who shot the deputy?" We all know who shot the sheriff, but does anybody know the answer to the old lady's question.

There is a song on Clapton’s next album, There’s One In Every Crowd, entitled, Don’t Blame Me, which is supposed to flesh out the story of I Shot the Sheriff.

I don’t have the album or access to the song, but if anyone does, it may hold the answer. It might not be as funny as the speculation, though.
